The miss- application of the principles in Matt 18 . They wont accept forensics as a "second witness". This not only applies to sex crimes .
Lets say you are receive a warning letter (or cease and desist type order) from a Bro or Sister, through a lawyer or court. And you know that this is just a ploy or some legal wrangling this person is using to keep you off balance. You have done nothing to warrent a Civil warning.
So you take it for what it's worth from "Ceasar". Now the person who requested this order will have you arrested if you try to approach them about the Order or anything else. They have shunted your ability to "gain" them back using Bible principles.
Plus, the person requesting the Order has essentially lied to get the order, and caused you to be in bad light by advising others about it's existence.
Now in my mind we have a situation where one that would require this to be aired out to the "older men".
This is were the WT Logic looses me.
SO- you request a meeting with the brothers and the accuser . The Elder's refuse to call the other person to the meeting? Why? YOU can't produce "two witnesses". "To what", you ask, "The fact that I don't deserve a letter, or that I've been falsly accused using the mechanisms of "Ceasar" by a Spritual sibling?"
"Can YOU prove you didnt do what the legal document warns you off? Do you have two witness that will state that you didnt do "x,y or z"
"No", you say, " The issue is that this person asked for this legal document against me. This is an accusation by implication"
"Well do you have two witnesses" says the Sheperd. "To what- the point is by requesting a lawyer and judge to produce this document against me, with out any substantiotion or discusion with me this person has wrondged me by manipulation of the legal system" To which he replies " True, but we are not discussing a civil matter."
Of course you may know that this will continue into a never ending circle by know.
The issue is that the document itself is the "two witnesses" the person had to instigate it by asking a legal representives to prepare and process it. Even a "warning letter' from a parties lawyer involves the act of asking for it (and if its based on a false asking for it is a Lie).
Bottom line-- Logic is a relative thing
God is a God of Order.... the WT has even ( in their defence) allowed a system that could work on occasion. The Problem is the MEN who are placed in power by the PUBLISHING Company do not Minister to the sheep. THE Watchtower system corrupts the word of God- MT 18 is not to judge or convict to to adjust the thinking of an erring one. THE Watchtower "Logic" allows MEN who dont really understand Jesus' ransom to convict and if they can't get a "slam dunk" they tell you to "let god handle it".
